Beam Tube Insulation Removal

Insulation removal started in earnest on Tuesday of this week. The vendor is using a soft sided 54 foot trailer to load waste insulation into. Once a day they fill the trailer and take it to the city dump where they have stationed another forklift to help push the insulation off of the trailer.

They are making very good progress - starting at the LVEA they have progressed to the third double door which is ~2400 feet down the arm or ~800 feet per day.

Photos show the work in progress and the end result - a clean beam tube enclosure.
